• Apply electrodes to the site by pressing around the outer edge of the
electrode. DO NOT press on the center of the electrode since this may
interfere with proper adhesion. The electrode, especially its center, must lie
flat against the patient’s skin.
• Select CONTINUOUS IMPEDANCE and measure electrode impedances
after all electrodes have been placed and lead wires and patient cable are
connected. Acceptable maximum impedances: 5 K ohms for each electrode,
2 K ohms differential between the pairs.

Position as high as possible on the
placement sites. Avoid hair interference.

• Electrode impedances are automatically measured and
displayed every 5-minutes after processing is started. If
electrode impedances are greater than the acceptable range
(5 K ohms for each electrode or 2 K ohms differential between
the pairs) the impedance values will flash if the impedance of
any electrode exceeds 5 K ohms, or if the difference between
the electrode pairs exceeds 2 K ohms. If the impedance
exceeds 99 K ohms, ++ is displayed.
